I’m so embarrassed THANK GOODNESS it was just my family who were the ones to eat it, lol!

Ha ha! Now that’s funny!! It really does look beautiful though, and at least you could pull the paper out.

THat is pretty funny! Oh, the silly baking and cooking mistakes I have made! It is really pretty though!

Oh that’s hilarious!! I’m glad it wasn’t completely ruined, it would’ve been a tragedy given how beautiful it looks! And don’t feel bad - I once roasted a whole chicken with the bag of giblets still in the cavity. Now that’s disgusting. Melted plastic and giblets are surprisingly unappetising.
PS Congrats England! Hope to see you in the finals …

Baking parchment aside, your cake looks lovely and delicious. I’ve had enough baking tragedies to fill a book. But I won’t. There shall be no record of my culinary misdeeds.

Hey Nin! I have to say that cake looks so good! Paper or not, I know the cake was made with love! You can share the recipe with me, my friend:+)

BWAHAHAHAHA!! It’s okay to laugh, right? I’m laughing WITH you not AT you! A little parchment never hurt anyone, I bet it was still delicious.

Nin I gave you an award it’s over at my blog you can pick it up there but just bring a piece of cake with you, I’m not fussy, I’ll pick the paper out.
*muah*

Well…It looks pretty….and you know….paper just adds a bit of fiber to the meal….hehe
I don’t cook much…so havent had much of a chance to mess anythng up….I have burnt pancakes though, and grilled cheese sandwiches…how oh how do you burn something like that???
Thanks so much for the comment on my blog…I finally posted the pictures of what I got that day, along with today’s treasures…which I was very excited about, as well as a super easy, no way you can ruin ‘em peanut butter cookies(which is probably what I like making them?)
BTW welcome to Mary Janes Forum!

Oh, Nin, that’s not so bad!! Still edible. I have done many worse things. I made a heart shaped two layer cake for my daughter’s birthday and put the icing on before it cooled and they slide apart. I could only take one layer to her.

Yikes! It’s still very beautiful though! LOL

Ha ha ha! That made me laugh so much! But at least it was still edible, albeit with a bit of culinary surgery to extract the offending item! It looks very, very tasty though

omg hahahaha sorry hunnie but i love it !
you are so adorable !
it looks yummy tho
can you please send me the buttercream icing recipe ?
XOXO

…Hello, such a cute story! Well the cake is still beautiful and it is still edible with a lil’ effort so all in all, I say…”good job”! We’ve all been there - done that! ;o)
…Blessings…

Gosh, and award? I really don’t know what to say! Thanks everyone, your comments have made me feel a lot better about the whole AWARD WINNING incident now.

I should have known really. Publicly broadcasting on my blurb that I bake the occasional cake was just asking for trouble!. Here’s hoping that it all works out next time

Oh noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HI
I did a google search for pink cakes and came across this site. Do you have the recipe still? Could you email it to me? My three year old daughter wants a PINK cake from Santa…….

Hmm, I have it somewhere. it’s just a basic cake recipe, and I added a splash of red food colouring to make it pink. I will have a look this weekend and will see what I can do.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi! I found your site while looking for pink cakes too! And I want to make this cake for my daughter’s 3rd bday next weekend. Can I have the recipe? Her party is pink and brown theme.
Thanks!
